BLT Avocado Chop Salad Recipe with Homemade Ranch Dressing
Pin to Pinterest

This is a delicious and healthy meal that you can build to customize to your taste. Served with an Greek yogurt homemade ranch dressing- you will never buy it at the store again! If I include my kids in the preparation process they will usually eat anything, salad is no exception. Crumbling bacon in a baggie, or tossing everything together are great jobs for little hands.

BLT Avocado Chop Salad

Ingredients list:

  • 1 head of romaine lettuce or 1 bagged salad
  • 1 avocado
  • 6-8 pieces of cooked bacon
  • 1 Large tomato
  • 3 oz. Mozzarella (consider low fat for a healthier alternative, I raided the kids fridge snacks and diced up 3 mozzarella cheese sticks into our salad)

Other ingredients that are great to include in chopped salad: scallions, diced bell pepper, corn, black beans, crushed tortilla chips, homemade croutons, diced olives, diced boiled eggs or just about anything else you can think of.
